BE IT
ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:
Sec.
1. RCW
28A.410.010 and 1992 c 159 s 3 and 1992 c 60 s 2 are each reenacted and amended
to read as follows:
The
state board of education shall establish, publish, and enforce rules and
regulations determining eligibility for and certification of personnel employed
in the common schools of this state, including certification for emergency or
temporary, substitute or provisional duty and under such certificates or
permits as the board shall deem proper or as otherwise prescribed by law. The
rules shall require that the initial application for certification shall
require a record check of the applicant through the Washington state patrol
criminal identification system and through the federal bureau of investigation
at the applicant's expense. The record check shall include a fingerprint check
using a complete Washington state criminal identification fingerprint card.
The superintendent of public instruction may waive the record check for any
applicant who has had a record check within the two years before application. The
rules shall permit a holder of a lapsed certificate but not a revoked or
suspended certificate to be employed on a conditional basis by a school
district with the requirement that the holder must complete any certificate
renewal requirements established by the state board of education within two
years of initial reemployment.
In
establishing rules pertaining to the qualifications of instructors of American
sign language the state board shall consult with the national association of
the deaf, "sign instructors guidance network" (s.i.g.n.), and the
Washington state association of the deaf for evaluation and certification of
sign language instructors.
The
superintendent of public instruction shall act as the administrator of any such
rules and regulations and have the power to issue any certificates or permits
and revoke the same in accordance with board rules and regulations.
